1. Arabs fled because their leaders told them Israel would soon be destroyed.
2. Arabs who remained became citizens of Israel. Others refused citizenship in Arab lands.
3. 850k Jews were expelled from/forced to flee N. Africa/Middle East, most becoming citizens of Israel.
No one should be driven from their home.
Today, I’m proud to be an original sponsor of a resolution recognizing the Palestinian Nakba, which commemorates the 74th anniversary of the tragedy where 700,000 Palestinians fled and were expelled from their homes, making them refugees.
